    java newb

    hey gys

    in recent past i have discovered mirocontrollers and learned C to go with it, i am also familar with vb(6) and the real old basic,

    i want to get in to the java mostly to do apps for my phone and such, i think im leaning twords android though for the tablets, since they have the bluetooth, perfect for my pic programming, so i have gotten the sdk for that.

    mostly as im reading through my tutorial book im seeing the similarties with C, but i am running in to a problem with things such as these:

    myframe.setTitle

    what are these each called and how do they work?
    obviously myframe is the object and settitle is a variable in it er watevr,
    but where would i get a list of all the "components" and objects i can work with?

    i think i am looking for basic system objects, objects for games(lamer graphics), also libraries for the bluetooth, wifi, and buttons. are they with the SDK?

    also what is this doing:

    com.something.smthinelse.morething


    furshure i like coffee, but is java right for me? maybe ther is something better like expresso? vb was best since it has a nice little box with all the paramiters in it

    okay, maybe i should staart over from the begining... i have installed eclipse, the sdk, and the adt, i have made it to step 5 here
    http://developer.android.com/trainin...nning-app.html

    Select the new AVD from the Android Virtual Device Manager and click Start.

    but when i click start and the emulator runs it simply says android_ and thats it,
    i have tried running my own oneline proggie and also samples and tests,
    but no matter what the emmulator just says ANDROID_

    how do i get something to run!!!???

    I believe I moved this thread in error so I'm moving it back to the Java section.

    doggy: I apologize if I've caused any confusion.
